Work with files and apps on another PC

Take a screen shot

Sometimes it's simpler to show someone what's on your screen than it is to explain it. To capture the screen, press and hold the Windows logo on the touchscreen and then press the volume down button on the left edge of Surface. The screen dims briefly when the screen is copied and saved as a file in the Screenshots folder (which is in your Pictures library).

You can also use the Snipping Tool to capture areas of the desktop screen. . For info about using the Snipping Tool, see Use Snipping Tool to capture screen shots on Windows.com.
